Every year I 'm feeling the same, time flies faster and faster, I don't know why? I remember I felt time past so slow when I was a teenager.  and still can not figure out why feeling like time is getting faster and faster. I suppose it will get faster and faster. So time is money. Time is treasure.   Time is a gift. So my new year's resolution for 2019 is  enjoy every moment. Focus on only what I love, what I desire, and things which make me feel happy. Today,  I would like to talk about natural remedy for cold and flu. I haven't caught a cold and flu since a long time ago but last month in January , after I washed my hair  and wiped it well with bath towel,  I was naturally drying it without using hair dryer. Because I noticed that my hair got more shining when I dry my hair this way. and then I went to bed in that night. In the next morning, I woke up with terrible headaches. and I felt joint pain everywhere in my body,so soon I thought I caught a cold or flu.

My husband had been suffering from insomnia until recently from around March 20. His work shift had changed from evening shift to morning shift and this  caused him to get the insomnia. Seems like when people get older, ( over 50 years old ), it's easy to get insomnia when their life style changes and many people are experiencing the same issue as my husband. I was very surprised to see it happened to him because  I've never seen he had such an issue since we got together.   He was always no problem to fall a sleep no mater what, until recently. and it always looked deep sleep, and he was not easy to wake up even I was making some noise while he was sleeping. But since he got the sleeping problem, his sleep looked shallow, and easy to wake up whenever I close or open the door , taking a shower, using faucet to wash my hands or face. Some days he could not sleep whole night and had to go to work without sleeping. Some days he could sleep 3 hours, and long

Having toothaches can be one of the worst pains ever in life. I had a very tough experience with a toothache  when I was 19 years old.   and it happened during the beginning of holiday times and all the stores and hospitals including the dentists were closed for about 7 days at that time. So I had to deal with the terrible pain for 7 days  until the dentist opened. Since then I was already careful for my teeth, because I didn't want to experience such a terrible pain anymore. It's wonderful that there is the internet where we can get many information to get knowledge easily nowadays. ( Depending on the source, of course ) Today, I would like to share our new discovery for a home remedy which cures toothaches. My husband got terrible toothaches last weekend. It was weekend and dentists were all closed so I searched in internet for toothaches remedies. and he tried some remedies below,   Grapefruit seed extract First , he tried grapefruit seed ext

Have you ever bitten your cheek or tongue while having a meal accidentally ? I sometimes did it and it's usually when I was thinking something else while eating foods. It's painful and it usually continues about a week to be fully recovered.   Last Friday, my husband accidentally bit his cheek quite hard while eating his lunch at work. He said usually after 2 to 3 days, from his experience, the pain gets worse , then it heals. and he didn't say anything about it to me until Sunday afternoon, when the symptoms got worse and I didn't know about it . He looked fine until Sunday afternoon. I was giving him a massage in the afternoon and soon he fell a sleep. He said after he woke up from the nap,  he was getting pain from the cheek. and I noticed that his cheek was getting swollen, as if there was a ball in the side of the lower cheek.  and his face and his body had high fever.  I've never seen and heard that one's face could get so swollen from biting one

Today I would like to talk about coconut oil .   It's getting to be very popular worldwide. And recently I found it's also very popular in Japan and many people who love natural health care are getting into it. Coconut oil has been one of my favorite natural health foods since a few years ago, however for cooking I mainly use extra virgin olive oil or sesame oil , and we haven't used it much until recently.  But after reading many benefits of extra virgin coconut oil , we started taking it again. Extra virgin ( virgin ) coconut oil has so many great benefits to keep good health and also beauty and anti-aging , so it is used by many people worldwide. I didn't know there are two types of coconut oils which are extra virgin coconut oil ( unrefined ) and refined coconut oil , until recently. I only knew extra virgin coconut oil and had never tried the refined coconut oil. According to the information I've read , extra virgin ( or virgin ) cocon
